I love Pinterest. You love Pinterest. We all love Pinterest.

What's not to love?

The popular website contains countless ideas for anything you could imagine -- recipes, DIYs, decor, tattoos, weddings, fashion, etc. It contains inspiration for workouts, writing, and art. It truly is a magical place. However, as soon as I finish writing this, Pinterest and I need to break up, and here's why:

1. I waste a ridiculous amount of time.

It's Summer, and I still feel like I'm wasting time on Pinterest. I grab my phone, and the next thing you know I've like 137 pictures of Friends quotes (yes, I would like to see Rachel's 30 most iconic outfits in season one). It's even worse during the semester. Honestly, I don't know why I haven't done this sooner. Finals week would be a much pleasanter thing if Pinterest and I were simply acquaintances.

I pride myself in wanting to make the most out of life -- to not waste life away doing the mundane. Yet, is there anything more mundane than scrolling through Pinterest for an hour?

2. It makes me feel discontent.

Pinterest is bomb. There is a plethora of amazing stuff on Pinterest, and that's cool, but the thing is, I've found that staring at all the cool things that could "make my life better, make me feel cooler, or satisfy me," make me feel the exact opposite. I find myself comparing my own circumstances with what I see on Pinterest and it makes me unhappy. I start to feel sad, like mid-life-crisis, I-haven't-done-anything-with-my-life, why-are-these-people-so-much-cooler sad.

Maybe you think this is just my own personal deeply rooted lack of satisfaction with life. It's not. I am actually very much so in love with my life. It's a fantastic thing. However, I bet if you look at yourself, you feel the same way.

When we spend hours, glorifying the things we don't have -- but could have, over time it will make us feel sad and discontent.

If you can say without a doubt that you don't have this struggle -- more power to ya.

3. I daydream more than I do.

I'm a dreamer, absolutely. But there reaches a point when I need to stop dreaming about what I want to do, and actually do it instead. I look at all these cool workouts for 45 minutes and dream about how good it would be to do them -- how healthy I would feel afterward. Really, I could have been working out for 45 minutes and actually feel healthy and good.

I look at countless pins that don't apply to me now. Future homes, apartment decorations, job advice, even wedding stuff, and in doing so I take myself out of the now. I force myself out of the present and into a very idealistic future that in all honesty, sets me up for discontentment both now and in the future.

This isn't me telling you that Pinterest is evil and no one should use it. Pinterest is awesome. This is me looking at myself, knowing myself, and making a change that I think will benefit me greatly in the long-run. It's me challenging you to look at yourself and see if there are any changes you can make to benefit yourself in the long-run.

Pinterest, it's been real. I'll miss you, at least for a little while.. but I'm sure it will get easier. Best of luck in all your future endeavors, maybe we will meet again someday.

Adios Pinterest.
